- Sauté until the onion is translucent and golden. Season with turmeric, black pepper, and salt to taste.
- Now, add the cabbage and toss well so all the flavors incorporate.
- Cover the pan for a few minutes, allowing the steam to cook the cabbage. Stir occasionally to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
- Once the cabbage is tender-crisp, adjust the salt if needed and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
